"Die Mormonen, ihr Prophet, ihr Staat und ihr Glaube" by Moritz Busch is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The book delves into the complex origins, beliefs, and societal implications of the Mormon movement in America, focusing on prominent figures such as Joseph Smith. It scrutinizes the rise of this unique religious sect amidst a chaotic landscape of competing beliefs in the United States and the early establishment of their community. The opening of the work examines the diverse and tumultuous religious landscape in 19th-century America, marking it as a "chaos of sects" that rendered the comprehension of various movements challenging, particularly for outsiders. Busch introduces Joseph Smith, the founder of Mormonism, and outlines his purported divine revelations and the emergence of the faith from a blend of mystical beliefs and a quest for religious truth. He notes how Smith's character, talents, and circumstances enabled the growth of a sect that radically diverged from mainstream Christianity, setting the stage for the detailed exploration of Mormonism’s unique doctrines and practices that follow in the narrative.
